~ Konnichiwa, and I’m back with another update for anyone who actually cares! LOL
As those who’ve been in the café recently know, I’ve had the pleasure of diving myself headfirst into Evangelion, an old staple for the deconstruction of robot anime. While that has definitely been the highlight of my month, I have also been diggin’ around FUNimation’s website – specifically in the slice-of-life/harem genres to quell my pensive Eva mood.
Recently finished:
Neon Genesis Evangelion – though confusing at times, it struck a nice chord with me, read my review!
The End of Evangelion – the thorough conclusion to the series, check out my thoughts here
Evangelion 1.11 You Are (Not) Alone – what it lacks for in retaining original quality makes up for with winning animation, review on the way
No Game No Life – cut-short anime in need of a second season, review on the way
Currently watching:
Ben-To – only two episodes in, but it seems it doesn’t get more complex than this
Date A Live – been wanting to watch this one for a loooonnnggg time, and I hope it doesn’t disappoint
Unbreakable Machine Doll – yeah, I haven’t technically started this one yet, but it has an interesting setting
Evangelion 2.22 You Can (Not) Redo – again, waiting to pick this up, but I might as well include it in this update
Parasyte – things are definitely reaching an end, but I don’t know if that’s a good thing or a bad one
Log Horizon – is it sad to say that I am awaiting its end? It’s fascinating, yes, but it drags quite a bit
ALDNOAH.ZERO – season two continues to flesh out one of the main characters and support itself with more clever fights; bravo!
And for those who read these, I still have not even touched the Sword Art Online Light Novel Volume One. It’s a good book – I swear! – But yeah, no progress . . .
Thank you to all of my new followers and of course, returning customers! I love reading what you guys have to say, even if it’s just a “hey” or whatnot 🙂 Please continue to like and follow like ya do, and until next time, this has been

I think Ben-To is coming out in the UK soon. I’m interested in checking it out because it sounds funny.

I think FUNi just released it here, so that’s what caught my attention.

With aldnoah, I’m in two minds about it. It wasn’t bad, but having Idaho suriving is just blatant script immunity. Which kind of put me off the series (I know it shouldn’t) but will try to continue on with the series. With log horizon, I agree the second season was more about world building than anything else. But it is setting itself up for a 3rd season (hopefully). There are a few spring/summer anime, that have caught my eye which I’m looking forward too. Good post Takuto.

I agree – if Inaho was left dead then the series would have been a little more intriguing. Log Horizon for a season 3?? We can only hope. Thanks!
